    need a dripping atty

    I think any standard resistance (SR, 2.4-2.8 ohms) KR808D-1 threaded atomizer will work for direct dripping on a G6. Do not use low resistance (LR) attys, they will kill your battery.

    Do Clearomizers Contain BPA?

    I'm certain that BPA leaches from polycarbonate containers into juice, in some cases at high levels. Whether or not BPA is present in vapor depends on what temperature BPA begins to thermally decompose, that is, what actually winds up in vapor could be BPA itself or its thermal decomposition...

    Anyone Know what the wire mesh is made of?

    These threads have extensive discussions about the use and safety of SS wicking materials - Wick materials. Safe vs dangerous. Just Stainless Steel Wick and Filler Stainless Steel Doughnuts for dripping

    Joytetech eGo-C - Constant priming and burnt taste

    Sounds like the wick needs adjusting, this short video explains and demonstrates how to do that. Basically you just use a toothpick to slightly push the wick down in the atty spike about 1/32 inch.

    Is it VG or PG causing my problems?

    That can be a side effect from quitting analogs as well as the result of too much nicotine. How much did you smoke, what nic level juice are you using and how many ml are you going through in a day? You might try something like Metamucil. It might seem counter-intuitive to use that but the...

    Do Clearomizers Contain BPA?

    The clearomizers and tanks that use polycarbonate tubing do contain BPA (bisphenol A) and at best are probably leaching at least low levels of BPA into the juice given that PG, VG, PGA and DW are well-known solvents. In the worst situations (e.g., where citric acid is used as a preservative...

    SteelJan review: Gotvapes Ultimo Vision 950 Variable Voltage E-cig

    I think st0nedpenguin was just referring to the fact that you posted in a "dead" (inactive) thread, Kasia. In that context, "necromancy" is just a colloquial expression for reviving dead threads.

    How to stop joye ego leaking?

    The #1 cause of eGo-T tanks leaking is dragging too hard and fast because the suction caused by fast, hard dragging pulls more juice through the wick than can be vaporized by the coil. The result is the build-up of juice and eventual leaking like you describe. Try a soft, slow drag and see if...

    Burnt taste from LR atomizer running on VG

    There are several things you can try with your LR attys - 1. Take one or two primer puffs (without pressing the button) before vaping to pull more juice through the wick to the coil. 2. Thin out your VG juice a bit so that it wicks faster by adding a drop or two of distilled water or PGA. 3...

    Congrats on getting started with vaping! I quit a 45-year, 1-2 pad habit a little over 3 months ago and was amazed by how easy it was with vaping when nothing else I had tried ever worked. I'm a happy eGo-C user and have one basic tip for you - use slow, soft drags with it, not the hard, fast...

    eGo-C user looking for better performance

    The LR attys should help with the TH you are looking for. In terms of variable voltage, you might want to check out the new eGo-C Twist battery that offers adjustable voltage from 3.2v to 4.8v. There's an ECF thread about it here and there's also a youTube video about it by Cozzcon. The 650 mah...

    Sore gums

    I've found that my gums get inflamed and sore if the vapor is too warm, that is, when I turn the voltage up too high or mimic high voltage vaping with LR attys or cartos. I don't know if that's due to the heat of the vapor itself or that more heat increases the nic hit to gum tissue, or a...

    What's the best e cig under $200?

    If you want to get your feet wet in VV but keep the Kgo form and not spend a lot of money, the new eGo Twist might be something to consider. Cignot has it for $29. It has a buck boost circuit with continuous VV between 3.2v to 4.8v. Only the 650 mah is currently available so the battery charge...

    Not real impressed with the eGo T, in fact, yuck!

    Glad to hear that it's working better for you now! :)

    Geniune Joyetech Twist in all MAH coming very soon

    You're right, obviously I didn't think through all of the ramifications of that impulse to be helpful (perhaps because I was still a bit excited by having just ordered one from said vendor). Anyway, I apologize and will try to be more mindful about such things in the future.

    Leaking eGo-c

    I use the eGo-C with zero leaking problems. Here are some tips - 1. The #1 cause of leaking with the eGo tank systems (T or C) is dragging too hard because the strong suction created by hard drags pulls more juice through the wick than the coil can atomize, thereby leading to eventual leaking...

    Any way to fix leaky Ego T?

    I've used the eGo-C for several months now and have zero problems with leaking. Here are some tips - 1. Dragging too hard is probably the #1 reason why people have leaking problems with the eGo tank system. The eGo-T (and C) require a soft, slow drag, doing fast, hard drags like most people...

    Geniune Joyetech Twist in all MAH coming very soon

    My understanding is that it was the 1000 mah batteries that were recalled, not the 650s.
